Study Notes
Gaining Negotiation Skills
- Negotiation skill that is the hardest to learn is the ability to cooperate
- A complete tool kit of cooperation, competition, avoidance, and acknowledgment is necessary, along with the ability to compromise
- The illusion of competence may prevent us from expanding our skill set
Perspective-Taking
- Cooperation relies on reasoning and perspective-taking
- Ability to see the world through the eyes of another is crucial
- Tit for tat strategy elicits cooperative behavior, even from strangers
- Tit for tat reinforces cooperative behavior while maintaining fairness
Self-Control
- Self-control incentivizes cooperation over violence in dilemmas
- Delay of gratification for greater future benefits is enabled
- Self-control facilitates trade-offs and cooperative moves despite intuitive fears or impulses
- It allows for productive handling of uncertainties in negotiations
Empathy
- Empathy is essential for cooperation
- Negotiators consider various factors, such as whether it should be a pure price deal or a staged agreement
- Attending closely to the other side's needs and interests incorporates value-creating benefits for them
- Writing "their victory speech" creates goodwill and improves the value of the deal for the other party
- Brainstorming generates alternatives, even if they seem wild or impractical
- Do not decide sequentially; consider multiple issues simultaneously to enhance judgment accuracy and economic outcomes
Cooperative Bargaining
- There are limits to cooperative bargaining; it's not always in our self-interest to solely engage in cooperative tactics
- A balance between creating value and distributing it effectively is necessary
- Giving and taking is often the most promising approach in negotiations
- Research shows that negotiators achieve a larger piece of the pie when they have created value with the other side
Identifying and Framing Issues
- Negotiating about only very few issues can be difficult
- Identifying important issues for both sides is crucial
- Jeanne Brett's negotiation table can be utilized to identify interests, priorities, and framing for each party
- Framing plays a crucial role in negotiations, influencing how parties perceive the situation and behave
- Choosing the proper mental frame can help parties overcome a purely distributive mindset in negotiations
Acknowledging the Other Side
- Acknowledging the other side is a crucial tactic in negotiation
- Taylor Swift's negotiation with Apple Inc. over Apple Music's launch illustrates the tactic of acknowledging the other side
- Acknowledging one's BATNA and focusing on independent artists can shift attention and pressure the other side to reconsider their stance
